Tawa By-Election 2021

Timothy from Tawa

I am Tim Davin and am standing for theTawa Community Board in the current by- election.
I have been a resident of Tawa for 34 years. I am a member of Our Lady of Hope Church, the Tawa U3A, and the Tawa RSA.
I have civil engineering and public policy qualifications and have worked for the Wellington City Council, and in senior management at the Porirua City Council and Local Government NZ.
I have some great ideas for improving the Tawa & Linden shopping centres, commuter car parking, upgrading the two critical road bridges in Tawa, and upgrading some playgrounds. For further information have a look at my Candidate Profile Statement at wellington.govt.nz...

Anzac Day

Anzac Day

There are opportunities across the motu for the public to come together to mark Anzac Day this year.

National Anzac Day events include the Dawn Service at 6.00am and the National Commemorative Service at 11.00am (both at Pukeahu National War Memorial Park, Wellington), and the Atatürk Memorial Service at 2.30pm in Strathmore, Wellington. The Dawn Service and National Commemorative Service will be broadcast live by TVNZ 1 and RNZ National.

For those wanting to join the Anzac Day parade at the Dawn Service, veterans are asked to assemble on Tasman Street by 5.30am.

The Atatürk Memorial Service in Strathmore will include a wreath-laying ceremony. A shuttle service will be running from Bowes Crescent carpark to the memorial site for anyone who may require assistance accessing the site.

For more information about Anzac Day, visit the Manatū Taonga Ministry for Culture and Heritage website or see the Pukeahu National War Memorial Park Facebook page.

Poll: Could we live without public bins?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Many public rubbish bins are being removed by councils due to the large costs of regularly emptying them. Do you think we can adapt and live without them?

Type 'Not For Print' if you wish your comments to be excluded from the We Say You Say column of your local paper.
